Expect Link Light Rail delays after clock punches through roof of Westlake Station

SEATTLE - Expect delays for the next two weeks on portions of Link Light Rail in Seattle. Crews were moving a large clock when it broke through the roof of the tunnel at Westlake Station.

Trains will be single-tracking from Westlake to Stadium stations while the emergency repairs are underway.

The northbound platforms at Westlake, University Street, Pioneer Square and Chinatown-International District stations are closed. Only the southbound platforms at those stations will be open for trains traveling in either direction.
